“…The two components usually contain added plasmatic proteins such as factor XIII, fibronectin, and an anti-fibrinolytic agent like aprotinin or tranexamic acid [ 7 ]. Nowadays, aprotinin-free and tranexamic acid-free formulations are available [ 3 , 5 ] reducing the risk of side effects, such as aprotinin-associated hypersensitivity reactions, and tranexamic acid-associated neurotoxicity [ 3 , 5 , 20 – 23 ]. Several adhesives are available as liquid formulations (Evicel®, Crosseal™, Quixil®, Floseal®, Surgiflo®, Tisseel®, Beriplast P®) or as medicated sponge/patch (Tachosil®, Evarrest®).…”
